Device Financing Program for Farmers to Acquire Smartphones in Installments

TLDR

• Mr Mmari said Yas had a device financing programme that allowed customers to acquire smartphones and pay for them in instalments, making the devices more accessible to people who might not be able to meet the full cost.
• Farmers attending the Nane Nane exhibitions in Dodoma have been encouraged to visit the Yas pavilion to learn about the financing programme and other digital services available to support their farming activities and.
• However, he noted that connectivity alone was not enough if farmers lacked devices that enabled them to make full use of digital services.
